    The names of the most popular kids in your class (a trip down memory lane)

    My sister and I were going down memory lane last night talking about all the kids we went to school with. Got me to thinking about the most popular kids in my senior class and the names that were all the rage back then. Here is my list of the five most popluar girls and the five most popular boys:

    Suzanne
    Anne
    Beth
    Toni
    Stephanie

    Mick (real name Michael)
    Chandler
    Jack (real name John)
    Mark
    David

    These folks were the prom royalty, homecoming royalty, class president, cheerleaders, athletes, etc.

    So what were the names of the most popular kids in your senior class?

    It's impossible to say what really counted as 'popular' at my school, because we had a very large class with a lot of different groups, so I guess I'll go with some of the prom queen/homecoming court people who were generally liked.

    Girls:
    Tracey
    Alex (I don't know if it was really Alexandra or not-- she was Alex since first grade)
    Julianne
    Caroline
    Gianna

    Guys:
    Reese
    Scott
    Ben
    Elias
    Nathan
    College student, no kids, storyteller, writer, actor, pirate, name enthusiast.
    Favorite names since age three: Lucinda and Percival.

    Girls:
    Susan

    Whitney
    Christie
    Jodi
    Jennifer
    Shannon
